Kink: Breeding kink

Alright, this is very cute. An old myth says two heads of a village must get married to prevent famine and ruin. Unfortunately there’s no single woman in one of the villages - so it’s a marriage between Momoki and Chikage.

At first they get off the wrong foot, and with a seven year age gap on top of it, they avoid each other. However, they begin to realize they grow sick when apart and it’s revealed that the marriage bestows a curse that if they’re apart, they’ll die. It’s also a push from their families to consummate the marriage to bring blessings to the village.

The conflict comes from the end of this marriage and them parting ways — and surprisingly, a friend interjecting.

Honestly? This was super adorable. Their domesticity and married life once they committed to trying their best was awesome, the art is good, and their exploration around sex was sweet too. I loved it. Chapter 5, 6, and the extras were so good - the tenderness, the love, the chemistry of a married couple. Ahhh!
